2. Enter the characteristics for the bridging virtual Ethernet adapter as follows:
– It is standard practice to skip the first 10 adapter IDs. Start by defining the
bridging virtual Ethernet adapter with an ID of 11.
– Assume that all the packets are untagged, so leave the Port Virtual
Ethernet option set to 1, and leave the IEEE 802.1Q capable adapter
option unset.
– This adapter is used in a Shared Ethernet Adapter definition, so update
that section. Select the Use this adapter for Ethernet bridging check
box, and set the Priority value. Each adapter in each VLAN must have a
unique priority. No two adapters in the same VLAN should have the
same priority.
3. Click OK when the values are specified. You return to the main virtual
Ethernet window, where the newly created adapter is displayed (partially
obscured in Figure 7-12).
